Nutritious and delicious zucchini, oat and flaxseed arepas with chayote stew. [Esp-Eng]

I have always liked to eat arepas, but to take care of my health and that of my family, I have been concerned about enriching it, that's why I combine the precooked corn flour with vegetables, seeds and cereals that provide nutrients and vitamins to our body, besides helping to keep our weight, cholesterol levels under control and regulate blood pressure.

So I show you a recipe for zucchini, oats and flaxseed arepas, they are very healthy, delicious, easy to prepare and digest, its properties are diverse and low in calories and most importantly my family loves it.

Para esta receta lo primero que hago es lavar muy bien el calabacín, rallarlo, lo coloco en un bol, añado la avena, la linaza, la harina de maíz, 1/4 de cucharadita de cúrcuma rallada, sal y mezclo para integrar.

Then I add the water little by little, knead very well until the dough is smooth. Let it rest for fifteen minutes.

I make balls and with the help of my hands I give them a round shape, I place the arepas in a greased baking pan to cook them until they are golden brown on both sides. We know they are ready when we pat them and they sound.

To accompany these nutritious arepas I prepared a chayote stew, I wash it very well, remove the skin, cut it into small squares, the same procedure I do with the chives.

In a frying pan I put the olive oil and when it is hot I add the onion and let it sauté for two minutes, then I add the chayote and sauté for a few more minutes.

I season it with salt, turmeric and pepper, add half a cup of water, cover and let it cook for ten minutes over low heat or until tender.

Now ready to serve and enjoy a very nutritious dish full of energy. I hope you liked it.
